North Carolina lets disabled hunters use a crossbow. I use one and all it takes is an application from the game commision and it has to be then signed my your family doctor stating the reason for the dissablilty. Then the game commision mails you a crossbow hunting permit good for life or as long as the dissability last. Also, new in our state for the 2009-2010 season, the commission is planing to let gun season start the same time as archery season. All three weapons came then be used any time. I hope this doesn't pass as it will surely screw up bow season with all those guns in the woods the same time. I would prefer that they open up the month of January instead and prolong the season for deer population control.
